SOLD

Original German WWII Luftwaffe Paratrooper Gravity Knife By Paul Weyersberg & Co Solingen Brought Home By A U.S. Veteran Certified. A Rare German Paratrooper Knife! This example was produced by Paul Weyersberg & Co. of Solingen, who were one of the major producers of this knife during WWII. The company “Sword-and-Wreath” logo is engraved into the blade, as well as ROSTFREI (rust free) indicating stainless steel construction. This example has fine, stainless-steel components.  The knife is partly functional, not all parts intact. The blade release is gone but it works on gravity and the lock is broken (priced accordingly still makes a great display version) and though there is some wear to the blade of this knife and does show use and sharpening, which has marred the finish on the surface of the blade. The Weyersberg logo is somewhat worn, and the factory finish is worn. The blade is still very sharp. The grip plates are of walnut with the standard four retaining rivets. These plates are in good condition throughout, and do not have any major issues (see photos). A good condition non-working Luftwaffe Gravity Knife from the storied “City of Blades”!  100% Guaranteed to be authentic.  Complete museum documentation (COA) Provided. Certified by The Gettysburg Museum of History.  Please see our other items.  Also note when browsing our web site there are several pages of items, at the bottom of the list look for other page numbers.
